Bandellina, San Gimignano - Siena and Chianti

This spacious independent Tuscan villa with two terraces and a private pool will wow a large family or a group of friends travelling together with its tasteful mix of modern and traditional interiors. The setting is just perfect, too, close to some of Tuscany’s top historic sites, with the medieval hilltop towns of San Gimignano and Volterra and the vineyards of Chianti tempting ideas for day trips.

The fantastic, brick-built, covered terrace next to the pool has three rattan sofas and a glass-topped table. There is a second, covered terrace at the side of the villa with direct access to the kitchen. From here, guests can all dine al fresco together while enjoying views across the garden towards the pool and the countryside beyond.

Our Thoughts
What a looker. This villa has real flair, with its well-judged mix of traditional and modern styles. We thoroughly recommend Bandellina for large multi-generational families or groups of friends perhaps looking to mark a special occasion. The covered terrace at the side of the villa offers views across the estate and is ideal for a celebratory al fresco meal – guests can then move to the covered terrace at the rear of the property and relax over a drink on the comfy rattan sofas. The proximity of the pool to the house is also useful if you need to keep your eye on children at play.

Notes
Five bedrooms, five bathrooms, all en-suite. There is another rental villa next door, and the two properties are separated by a tall hedge.
Please be aware that only a maximum of three double beds can be converted into twins. Please specify which rooms you would like converted when adding reservation comments.
Parking - 3-4 spaces on site.

Pool
The large private pool is close to the villa. It is set with sunloungers and an open-air shower and is surrounded by a paved terrace. Chlorine-cleansed swimming pool measuring 6 x 12 metres with a depth of 1.5 metres. Open from May to September, weather permitting.
